- Not to be confused with Relegate V6.
- ❝ A standard delivery truck.❞
- ―In-game description in Watch Dogs.
The Landrock Motors Relegater is a multi-stop truck or walk-in delivery van featured in Watch Dogs and Watch Dogs 2.
Design[]
The Relegater is mostly based on the Chevrolet/GMC Step-Van that ranges from the late 1970s to the early 1990s. The Relegater can spawn in various colors and, in Watch Dogs 2, operated by various companies and businesses, such as Algaeris, Expedite and Haum Electronics.
Performance[]
Despite the Relegater not categorized as a Heavy vehicle, the van is rather heavy because of its size, resulting in a slow moving speed with average durability and handling. It still has a good acceleration, but leaves much to be desired. However it somewhat does preform and act like a Heavy vehicle, as it can withstand large amount of crashes and plow smaller vehicles out of the way. With its short wheelbase, it can make tight turns which is found on the smallest heavy vehicles such as the Convoy and Cube Truck. Both the Landrock Van 2500 and the Relegater share the same engine noise in Watch Dogs 2.

Variants[]
- Ice-Cream Relegater: Refrigerated examples of the Relegater can be seen driven in residential areas. These refrigerated examples are used as ice-cream vans. Along with the roof mounted refrigerator units, the vans may also feature a brightly-colored livery along with product ranges. The colors for the ice-cream van's bodies will also be relatively bright. The horn is replaced by a typical ice-cream jingle, which the jingle itself is based on the traditional nursery rhyme, Pop Goes the Weasel.
- Racine Relegater: Another variant of the van is used by Racine Boat Restoration, a company which plays a role in the game's story. The van is white and has the company logo emblazoned on the sides. The van is drawn by Jackson Pearce to explain his mother's assumed captors.
- Taco Relegater: The Relegater in Watch Dogs 2 assumes the role of the Taco Landrock Van 1500 from Watch Dogs, therefore having the same yellow color and a brown artificial sombrero on its roof. The van is operated by a business known as "Tacos Mexicanos El Frijol" (roughly translated into "The Bean Mexican Tacos"), according to the logo on its sides. Instead of a horn, it plays a Mexican-sounding jingle.

Trivia[]
- The Car On Demand app rendering shows at one point during the development of Watch Dogs, the Relegater would also spawn as door-less, giving it more resemblance to the real-life Step-Vans. This was cut for unknown reason.
- Strangely enough, in both games, the Relegater is categorized as a Budget and Standard vehicle, rather than a Heavy vehicle.
- Despite being a light commercial vehicle, in Watch Dogs, the van still features an industrial horn, like most heavy vehicles.
- Another strange feature on the Relegater, if the jingle on the Ice-Cream variant is activated, the traffic somewhat acts as if they are pulling over for emergency vehicles.
- The Relegater has also made other appearances in multiple games produced by Ubisoft:
- The Relegater appears in Ubisoft Ivory Tower's The Crew, The Crew 2, and The Crew Motorfest as an undriveable traffic vehicle. It is based on the Ice-Cream variant with minor changes.
- The Ice-Cream variant of the Relegater appears in Just Dance 2021 as the background rotating ice cream trucks in the dance stage for Ice Cream by BLACKPINK & Selena Gomez.
